Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolLorcan Wogan is a Senior Software Engineer based in Dublin with 5+ years focused on backend systems, specialising in Kotlin, Java, distributed systems, Kafka and high-throughput REST APIs. He has delivered measurable performance gains—most notably contributing to a 50x throughput improvement in the Corda 5 flow framework—while designing resilient, fault-tolerant event-driven architectures for fintech and travel tech. Lorcan blends hands-on engineering with technical leadership, having led teams, mentored engineers, and driven cross-team reliability initiatives such as standardized Kafka libraries and chaos/load testing toolkits. He prefers a docs-first approach, producing clear HLDs/LLDs that shape long-term maintainability and align stakeholders. Equally comfortable investigating P1 customer issues as he is architecting platforms, he brings a pragmatic focus on observability, data consistency and system behavior end-to-end.
